*Landscape Photography Show #47: Fill the Frame*
"Fill the Frame" is often the first advice given to a beginning photographer. That's what we will focus on in this event. For landscape photographs, that can be done in one of two ways.
1. Do it with through the viewfinder. Move yourself to the proper location and angle or zoom in/out if your camera does this until you get a pleasing image that "fills the frame". You don't want any extra space or elements that will distract from your composition.
2. Crop your photo to eliminate that meaningless extra space that doesn't contribute to your composition and eliminate distracting elements.
*Special Rules*
1. Share your landscape photograph that displays a scene where you have "Filled the Frame".

*Landscape Photography Show #46: Power Points*
In the last two events, we explored the horizontal and vertical rule of thirds lines and how they divide your frame into 9 equal parts. It's always great to set a horizon on the lower or upper horizontal line. It's also good to place a strong element along one of the vertical rule of thirds lines.
This event will focus on where the two vertical and horizontal rule of thirds lines intersect. We call those Power Points. There are 4 of them: upper left, upper right, lower left, and lower right.
Placing a strong element at one of the Power Points can really improve the composition, drama, and power of your photograph. Examples: the single red leaf on a green tree; the eye of anything wildlife, and the setting sun on the horizon.
Some landscape photographs really appeal to us and others seem boring. Do you know why? Your brain is being stimulated by composition, color, and contrast and it's all subconscious. Your photos can be more interesting and appealing by knowing rules of composition and when to break those rules.
Power Points are what we want practice with this event. Show us something special place at one of the intersection points of those vertical and horizontal lines.
1. Share your landscape photograph that displays something special at one of the Power Points.
2. In a comment on the photograph tell us which Power Point you used: upper left, upper right, lower left, or lower right. Explain how you used this technique in your composition. If you break the Power Point rules, tell us why. Also give us some information about the location and any challenges that you faced. We want to know the details about your photograph.
3. Other participants will be discussing how you used this technique and asking you questions. Please join the discussion on other photographs as well.

*Landscape Photography Show #45: Vertical Rule of Thirds*
In the last event, we explored how to set a horizon using the horizontal rule of thirds. We're continuing with this strong rule of composition by looking at the Vertical Rule of Thirds. This event will be starting later today so you have a chance to carefully read all the rules.
Some landscape photographs really appeal to us and others seem boring. Do you know why? Your brain is being stimulated by composition, color, and contrast and it's all subconscious. Your photos can be more interesting and appealing by knowing rules of composition and when to break those rules.
Remember in the last event that you imagined two horizontal lines in your viewfinder that divided the space into three equal spaces. Now, also imagine two vertical lines that also divide the view into thirds. You now have a grid much like the tic-tac-toe game. The four points where the lines intersect are called focal points. We will have more about them later. For now, we will focus on the vertical lines.
Does your landscape have a strong vertical element that you want to capture? Let's say it's a single tree. We often like to put that tree smack dab in the center of the photo. We may capture the tree but the photograph is boring. Try putting that tree along one of the vertical lines separating the space into thirds. Now the photograph has some drama and added interest.
That's what we want practice with this event. Use one of your vertical lines to capture a strong vertical element. Don't forget the Horizontal Rule of Thirds and Horizon that we had in the last event. We want both rules of composition used in this event!!
Knowing when to break the rules is important too but make sure you have a good reason to break the basic rules of composition.
*1. Share your landscape photograph that displays a strong vertical element using the Vertical Rule of Thirds. Keep in mind the horizon from the last event.*
*2. In a comment on the photograph explain how you used this technique in your composition. If you break the Vertical Rules of Thirds, tell us what you are trying to achieve.*
*3. Other participants will be discussing how you used this technique and asking you questions. Please join the discussion on other photographs as well.*

*Landscape Photography Show #44: Horizon - Rules-of-Thirds*
Some landscape photographs really appeal to us and others seem boring. Do you know why? Your brain is being stimulated by composition, color, and contrast and it's all subconscious. Your photos can be more interesting and appealing by knowing rules of composition and when to break those rules.
Imagine two horizontal lines in your viewfinder that divides the space into three equal spaces. Also imagine two vertical lines that also divide the view into thirds. You now have a grid much like the tic-tac-toe game. The four points where the lines intersect are called focal points. We will have more about them later and also the vertical lines. This event will focus on those horizontal lines.
Study your landscape BEFORE you shoot. In the viewfinder, place the horizon on one of those horizontal rule-of-thirds lines. You will have 1/3 sky and 2/3 ground or 2/3 sky and 1/3 ground. That composition is very pleasing to the viewer. Having your horizon dead center is often boring and not interesting.
Horizons should be level!! If you have sky and water, then having the horizon level is a MUST!!
If you have sky and ground, the "level" becomes more complicated. If your horizon is very curvy with rolling hills for example, you won't have a level horizon and that's OK. Your mind's eye knows that hills aren't level. If your horizon is the boundary between sky and land and only a slight hill, you're mind's eye won't find it appealing when looking at the photograph of that view because the horizon isn't level. You can trick your mind's eye by adding a vertical element to the composition that the viewer will "know" is vertical such as a tree. You might put that vertical tree on one of those vertical rule-of-thirds lines. Your mind knows that the tree is vertical and won't mind an unlevel horizon.
Knowing when to break the rules is important too but make sure you have a good reason to break the basic rules of composition. You might try getting added drama with 10-20% sky and 80-90% ground or vice versa.
Share your landscape photograph that displays a horizon using the horizontal rule-of-thirds. In a comment on the photograph explain how you used this technique in your composition. If you break the horizontal rule-of-thirds, tell us what you are trying to achieve. Other participants will be discussing how you used this technique and asking you questions. Please join the discussion on other photographs as well. Feel free to leave comments and discuss on the main event as well.

*Landscape Photography Show #43: The "S" Curve*
Curving lines are a fundamental aspect of landscape photography. They will move the viewer's eye throughout the photograph. When used in conjunction with light along the curve, the composition is even stronger. Here is some additional information from Outdoor Photographer:

Much more about the Peace Day and link to all events around the world.
http://peaceoneday.org
"The International Day of Peace, a.k.a. "Peace Day" provides an opportunity for individuals, organizations and nations to create practical acts of peace on a shared date.
It was established by a United Nations resolution in 1981 to coincide with the opening of the General Assembly. The first Peace Day was celebrated in September 1982........
Anyone, anywhere can celebrate Peace Day. It can be as simple as lighting a candle at noon, or just sitting in silent meditation. Or it can involve getting your co-workers, organization, community or government engaged in a large event. The impact if millions of people in all parts of the world, coming together for one day of peace, is immense."

What's better than red rocks? Red rocks with snow of course!! This is Cedar Breaks National Monument in Utah. I was there May 11, 2015 and the road had only been open 3 days. It's high in the mountains. It's very close to Zion and Bryce National Parks and well worth a visit. It's crowd free and the views are amazing!!
